Rhodar - Kirkstall Road Remediation - Update

Описание: Rhodar recently completed works at the prestigious Latimer redevelopment scheme on Kirkstall Road, in Leeds, and this latest video captures the latter stages of the project.

The scheme, based at a 45,000sqm riverside site, will comprise a mixed-use development, including over 1,400 new homes, retail and office space, as well as a new river bridge – providing access across the River Aire.

Appointed as Principal Contractor, Rhodar’s delivery of this complex, multi-faceted programme of works, comprised a full-scale enabling works package of asbestos removal, demolition and land remediation, together with major civil engineering works.

Works have included bulk earthworks and the removal of contamination and obstructions, an internal soft-strip, followed by full-scale demolition of industrial units, including the demolition of a former chimney, which was in excess of 50m high.

Rhodar also managed the removal of the old Bailey Bridge formerly spanning the River Aire, and the installation of the new bridge, along with a sheet piled river wall support system, extensive drainage, service utility infrastructure and haulage roads.

Working with local charity, St. George's Crypt, temporary accommodation pods were also installed on site and remained fully-occupied for the duration of the project. Subsequently, Rhodar employed two of the residents on site to help deliver our enabling works.
